Septium is the fundamental currency and energy source in the world of Zemuria, and its importance cannot be overstated in The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC. This precious ore is mined from deep within the earth and possesses unique properties that make it invaluable for both economic and technological purposes. It is the backbone of Liberl's economy and powers many of the advanced devices and systems you'll encounter.
Sepith, on the other hand, are the refined particles or essence extracted from Septium. These glowing motes of energy are what truly drive the magical and technological advancements in the game. Sepith is used in several ways:
- Currency: While not directly used as cash, Sepith is the basis for the monetary system. The Zelin, the standard currency, is backed by and convertible to Sepith.
- Arts: The magical abilities wielded by characters, known as Arts, are powered by Sepith. By channeling Sepith through their bodies or specialized devices, characters can unleash elemental attacks, defensive spells, and supportive effects.
- Crafts: While Crafts are physical techniques, their effectiveness can be enhanced by the user's mastery and understanding of Sepith flow within their own bodies.
- Equipment and Items: Many pieces of equipment, particularly Quartz, are designed to store and manipulate Sepith, allowing characters to learn new Arts or enhance their abilities.
The mining and distribution of Septium are tightly controlled, often by powerful organizations or governments, making it a source of both wealth and conflict. In Trails in the Sky SC, understanding how Sepith is utilized is key to mastering combat and character progression. You'll learn to manage your Sepith reserves, equip the right Quartz to optimize your Arts, and understand how different elemental Sepith (Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Time, Space, Mirage, and Null) interact to create powerful effects.
The availability and type of Sepith found in different regions can also influence the local flora, fauna, and even the types of monsters encountered. Pay attention to the Sepith values of your equipped Quartz and the elemental properties of your Arts to maximize your combat efficiency. Mastering the flow and application of Sepith is a core element of becoming a powerful adventurer in Liberl.
